Should I go to family Thanksgiving? I really don't feel like faking. (sopuli.xyz)

My uncle is hosting Thanksgiving. My aunt is apparently going to be there with her significant other. Their goddaughter is going to be there; overall, 18 people are going to be there, and I don't feel like faking.

For context, I don't give a fuck about anyone; I truly don't. Not my "family" or my "friends" – all my social interactions I fake. I fake like I care about my friends and their kids. Overall, I pretty much just fake my human interactions, and right now I just don't feel like faking.

Like, I really don't want to be around those people. I really don't.

Just say you can't make it. If they push, say personal issues and leave it at that.
